La Casita has become a staple of Bad Bunny‘s recent tours: The little pink house, styled to look like a traditional Puerto Rico home, was a mainstay of Bad Bunny’s No Me Quiero Ir De Aqui residency and it’s been a fixture as he’s plotted his Debí Tirar Más Fotos shows across Latin America. This has been the place where many of Bad Bunny’s celebrity friends have hung out and watched his performances in the past — and on Sunday, Bad Bunny brought the famed set piece to the Super Bowl stage.

The Casita was jam-packed with some of Benito’s closest buds during the historic performance. As Bad Bunny worked through some of his most energetic reggaeton hits, the cameras panned out to show Karol G, Cardi B, Jessica Alba, Alix Earle, David Grutman, Pedro Pascal, and Young Miko all hanging out there. Young Miko has performed in La Casita before, having popped out during Bad Bunny’s No Me Quiero Ir De Aqui residency. (Other celebs who have made appearances at the little house in the past include Mbappe, Darren Aronofsky, Austin Butler, and Penélope Cruz.)


The cameos didn’t stop there, of course. New Yorkers were proud to see their very own Toñita, the owner of the eponymous Puerto Rican social club in Brooklyn where Bad Bunny hangs out when he’s in the city. Venezuelan MLB player Ronald Acuña Jr. was also present in La Casita.

But the biggest surprises of the night were the guest performers: Fans were shocked to see Lady Gaga grace the stage to perform a salsa version of her Bruno Mars duet “Die With a Smile.” She also busted a few salsa steps and danced with Benito during “Baile Inolvidable.” Later, Ricky Martin stepped out to help Bad Bunny sing his emotional track “Lo Que Paso a Hawaii.”

Toward the end of the performance, Bad Bunny shouted out “God bless America!” and named every country in Latin America. Throughout his set, he honored Puerto Rican culture, showcasing everything from dancers to famed boxers to old men playing dominoes.

Sombr Steps Into the Wild, Wild West in New ‘Homewrecker’ Video

Only a few months have passed since Sombr released I Barely Know Her, and judging from his new single, “Homewrecker,” he now knows her. “I don’t wanna talk down on your lover,” he sings on the upbeat pop song. “I don’t wanna be a homewrecker/I just know I can be better, be better, be better.” All this as he and she “contemplate just one more round of love before you go home to another one.” Talk about moving fast, but it all sounds playful.

In the song’s music video, Sombr (real name Shane Boose) and Quenlin Blackwell, the comedian and content creator best known for the YouTube series Feeding Starving Celebrities, play actors in a Western with undeniable chemistry. Meanwhile, nobody has chemistry with the movie’s volatile director, played by Milo Manheim, an actor who has starred in Disney’s Zombies movie, who constantly needles everyone until it leads to a set-wide showdown. Gus Black, who has helmed clips for Phoebe Bridgers and Laufey, directed the clip.

Chris Brown Sued by Songwriter Claiming Star Stiffed Him Out of ‘Sensational’ and ‘Monalisa’ Royalties

R&B singer Chris Brown is facing allegations he cut a songwriter out of credit and compensation on his two songs “Monalisa” and “Sensational.”

In a new lawsuit filed Wednesday in Manhattan federal court, Steve Chokpelle claims he was at Brown’s Los Angeles home with Sean Kingston in 2020 when Brown asked him to compose lyrics for “Monalisa,” a track purportedly released on June 4, 2021. Though the lawsuit doesn’t mention it, a 2022 “Monalisa” remix from Nigerian musicians Lojay and Sarz that also featured Brown eventually peaked at Number Eight on Billboard’s U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart.

Zayn Begins Countdown to New Album ‘Konnakol’

Zayn is shifting gears following the conclusion of his Las Vegas residency. “It’s that time again, I have been lucky enough to make a fifth studio album,” the musician shared on social media, launching the countdown for Konnakol, set for release on April 17. During his run of shows at Dolby Live at Park MGM, Zayn previewed new material from the record including “Die for Me,” the lead single arriving on Friday, Feb. 6.

“KONNAKOL in its definition is the act of creating percussive sounds with one’s voice but what it means to me lies somewhere much deeper. It is a sound that holds the reverberation of a time before words existed,” Zayn said in a statement. “I have always drawn on my heritage for inspiration since I first started making my own music, this album is a development of that understanding, knowing more now than ever, who I am, where I come from and where I intend to go.”

Fans question why Tate McRae is promoting Team USA Olympics

In a new promo spot on NBC, Tate McRae is skiing on a mountain when she happens upon an owl. After introducing herself to the owl and the camera, for some reason, she explains she's 'Nobody's Girl', who simply wants to ''get to Milan for an amazing opening ceremony'', before extolling the qualities of American athletes.

While this normally would have gone unnoticed, fans were quick to ask why McRae was featured in this ad. She is, after all, Canadian, though she now resides in the USA. Furthermore, amid a strained relationship between Canada and the USA, fans from both countries found it a bit gauche on McRae's part.
